this is honestly one of my absolute favriote series right now. plus i really connect with Ginta. i craped my pants when i saw the first episode. cuz i pulled a stunt like his "holy heaven thunder" incident back when i was like 10 when me and my buddies used to rp on the bus ride to school. just insted it was more like me standing up on the bus seat yelling "i have the fire sword!" holding my hands above my head like im holding one.... and i got bad grades like ginta.... and i had like no endurance... and i have long blonde hair o.O;; kinda creepy... just i have good vision ^.^ even got a cute friend to defend me ^.^

Ginta vs. Phantom...already? So does this means the manga series is about to end? Or will this be like FoR where we thought Recca vs. Kurei in the tournament would be the big climax and all...

Lemme guess: NO, the manga will NOT end with Ginta and Phantom's battle...there's still the Queen (vs. Dorothy) and the unseen "King" (probably a "Mouri Kouran"-type who wants to gain power at the cost of annihilating the world and such...)

Is it just me, or does the final 1/5th of the manga feels ridiculously incredibly RUSHED? Battles were ludriciously shortened, there was little to no emotional impact on the supposedly emotional scenes as they were just skimmed over, reused plot cliches, among other things. It's like the supposed final dungeon/showdown of the manga was forced to be covered in just 10 chapters or so.

If i'm right, sometimes the company that publishes the manga, forces the author to end the manga earlier than the author wanted to. This was actually the first manga that I ever bought and it's my favorite. I even made a text-based RPG for it at http://z11.invisionfree.com/Beautiful_World/index.php?

I just finally finished reading the entire manga series (15 volumes), and I tend to agree that the chapters towards the end feel a bit rushed. There was little or no "anticipation" leading up to the "final battles", and the supposed "plot twist" is extremely cliched.

At any rate, it was a pretty entertaining manga. now if the anime series would just get the hell back o track and finish animating it!

Oh, and I was rather surprised at the "ecchiness" towards the last few volumes. Didn't think the author of Flame of Recca would "stoop so low"! Not that I blame him, since

I was very suprised as well, Shadowclone. Notice (I'm new to the forum, so I'm not sure what consitutes as a spoiler, but this doesn't feel like one ) that her dress is divided on her left side? I went back and tried to track down when exactly it happened, but from what I saw it just magically appeared at the start of the fight. Perhaps his fans or the people in charge wanted more fan-service?

I didn't mind it at all . I wouldn't be complaining if there was a bit more of her like that in the sequel.

Hrm, I wonder how they're going to do the scene on the anime? Just convienent camera angles or pieces of wrecked clothing? Hrrmmmm...
